Busy Month as Youth Evangelize Community
The Youth department has been very active over the pass month, holding revivals, series of youth meetings and engaged in physical work in and around the church. Therefore they decided not to just impart the church but to strategically reach out to evangelize the community.
To fully and effectively achieve their goal, the youth of the church organized a one day “Clean up Campaign” to clean the community and major street of Parcelles (map).
They spend 6 hours removing garbage, dirt and sand that had oven taken the street as a result of heavy
rains. It was wonderful and exciting. This was the first time the community had ever experienced young people coming on the streets to work without asking or begging for funds from the residence, by passer, motorist or commuters. It was exciting and wonder. While the youth were concentrating on traffic control and getting the streets clean, the children were sharing tracks and witnessing to who ever came their way for the Lord.
It was amazing to see the young as well as the old Muslim receiving tracks from the children in public, something which would have been difficult or impossible for an average person to do in the public. The children distributed over 450 tracks and as a matter of fact they ran out of tracks. The move by the youth has been welcome and highly appreciated by the community.
Nobody made commitment to Christ or rededicated their lives to Christ, but both Christian and Muslim, especially the Muslim are still talking about the orderly, disciplined and kind attitude of the youth.
Our prayers is that the Holy Spirit will work in the community and in the lives of all those who received tracks from the children. We pray that God will help us to lead his people by his wisdom and enable us to minister to them according to his grace.
